Fixes#22984
Add an `@` icon in unread topics where user is mentioned.
We track a new set of `stream_id:topic` pairs for the unread mentions
so that recent topics instantly knows if a topic is unread and mentioned
or not.
Previously, we retried all failed requests to
`/json/messages/matches_narrow` forever, with a fixed 5s retry. This
meant infinite retries even on 4xx responses, for instance on invalid
narrows -- and _each_ new message would add another infinite every-5s
retry.
Skip retries on 400 responses, and put an upper limit on the number of
retries. At the same time, change the retries to be
exponential-backoff with full jitter, to be more responsive in the
event of a one-off failure, and more forgiving in response to a longer
outage.
Failures that exhaust the 5 attempts are silent to the user -- since
this is likely an uncommon edge case (requiring Tornado to be serving
events to the client, Django to be unresponsive, and the client to be
narrowed to a filter it cannot apply locally), and the failure mode is
not bad (it will simply fail to live-update with new matching
messages).
Fixes: #20165.
Currently, if we navigate to some other topic/stream
while the message is being moved, the message edit UI
still remains open as we do not get its `row` in
`message_lists.current` since the message has not moved yet
to the stream/topic we navigated.
Hence the correct thing to do would be to delete
the message_id from `currently_editing_messages` if it
exists there but we cannot find the row.
Fixes#21724.
Previously, the topic_edited and stream_changed variables were
incorrectly used outside the loop over events, in a way that meant
we'd use the values of these from the last event, when we clearly
meant to use whether, for example, the current stream was changed.
In practice, it's rare for a client to process multiple message edit
events at the same time, but this will happen anytime a client is
offline for a few minutes during which several edits occur.
f0c680e9c0 introduced a call to
message_helper.process_new_message without first calling
message_store.set_message_flags on the message.
This resulted in it being possible as a race, when loading the Zulip
app to a stream/topic/near narrow, for a message to have the
`historical` flag be undefined due to not being initialized.
That invalid state, in turn, resulted in the message_list_view code
path for rendering the message feed incorrectly displaying additional
recipient bars around the message.
We could fix this by just calling message_store.set_message_booleans
in this code path. However, this bug exposes the fact that it's very
fragile to expect every code path to call that function before
message_helper.process_new_message.
So we instead fix this by moving message_store.set_message_booleans
inside message_helper.process_new_message.
One call point of concern in this change is maybe_add_narrow_messages,
which could theoretically reintroduce the double set_message_flags
bugs detailed in 9729b1a4ad. However, I
believe that to not be possible, because that call should never
experience a cache miss.
The other existing code paths were already calling
set_message_booleans immediately before
message_helper.process_new_message. They are still changing here, in
that we now do a cache lookup before attempting to call
set_message_booleans. Because the message booleans do not affect the
cache lookup and the local message object is discarded in case of a
cache hit, this should have no functional impact.
Because I found the existing comment at that call site confusing and
almost proposed removing it as pointless, extend the block comment to
explicitly mention that the purpose is refreshing our object.
Fixes#21503.
The resolve topic warning can feel like clutter in the event that the
compose box is empty (which often occurs when the user has no intent
to send a message), so we configure the validation logic to only
display the notice when the compose box is non-empty.
We take some care to minimize work the function is doing, beacuse it
is called on every keystroke in the compose box.
Fixes: #21155.
We loop through edit history entries and see if any of them
are more interesting than a (un)resolve topic edit, extending
the existing loop we had.
We also update the associated node tests.
Fixes#19919.

Updates the simulated edit history entries that are saved when
`update_messages` events are received for the modern data
structure on the server for `message.edit_history` entries.
Also cleans up a misnamed field in said entries, `edited_by`.
Uses the `rendering_only` field in the `update_message` event
to filter the addition of `last_edit_timestamp` to the message,
which is what triggers the addition of an `Edited` notification
when a message is rerendered in the web app.
Also, removes the deletion of `msg.last_edit_timestr` since this is
regenerated every time the message is rendered, and so it did nothing
beyond confusing the code.
For filters that cannot be applied locally, we don't know if the
messages are still a part of the filter. So, we remove the
existing message that were updated and let `maybe_add_narrowed_messages`
treat them all as new messages to the filter.
This fixes the bug where existing messages that were present in
the narrow were not updated.
This commit creates the function warn_if_topic_resolved that checks if
the topic to which the user is composing is resolved or not. First it
checks if the stream exists and then if the topic name starts with the
RESOLVED_TOPIC_PREFIX. If the conditions are true, a warning banner is
shown to the user.
It also shows to the user a button to unresolve the topic, if he has
the permission to do so.
Fixes#20584.
As noted in the TODO that we delete with this commit, we never
implemented live-updated for edit history when moving a message to
another topic.
Implementing this involves somewhat ugly copy-paste of the logic for a
content edit, but structurally is pretty simple.
It also makes #20451 much more visible.
We split recent_topics module into recent_topics_(ui + data + util).
This allows us to reduce cyclical dependencies which were
created due to large list of imports in recent topics. Also, this
refactor on its own makes sense.
We were passing new_stream_id as undefined in case of topic
edit as event.new_stream_id is undefined in that case.
We pass the correct stream_id to fix it.
This basically reverts 4bd7ec7c36 and
3a9dfc02e6.
The plan earlier was to have compeletely different codepaths
for user and topic muting, so that we could call seperate
functions in the message list class on receiving the respective
events.
However, this cannot be done, because if we, for example, on
receiving a `muted_users` event, filter `_all_items` based on
just user mutes, and store the result in `_items`, then, that
result may still contain topic-muted messages, which is
undesirable. Hence whenever we filter messages, we must do so
based on both user as well as topic muting.
(The code for the former will be added in further commits.)
So, we will have a single function which will handle updating
the message lists for muting.
Earlier, a user can only mute a topic from its recipient bar but can't
unmute it from there (and in fact we displayed an option to mute even
if the topic was already muted!). This commit fixes that bug and
allows a user also to unmute the topic from its recipient bar.
There are two core issues here;
* We did not have code, an icon, etc. for the "already muted" case in
the recipient bar logic at all.
* We did not rerender messages in !excludes_muted_topics views when
muting state changed.
See: 660475bd0c for background on when
we started only rerendering the streams with excludes_muted_topics
after muting changes. Rerendering of newly muted topics are important
for live rendering if a user is narrowed to that topic itself, which
are essentially all excludes_muted_topics narrows anyway.
Hence, now, we rerender by calling the `rerender` function for muted
topics (which is done just before we update the items for muting via
the function: `update_items_for_topic_muting`).
Tweaked by tabbott to add comments explaining the reasoning and
long-term plans.
Fixes#15223.
When moving a topic within a stream that is deactivated, the stream
may not be present in stream_data. Avoid throwing an exception in
this situation by leaving stream_name as undefined; existing logic
seems to anticipate that as a possibility, so we don't need a broader
change.
Longer term, we may want to just send to clients basic data about
archived streams that the user has access to.
Fixes: #17271
This reduces the complexity of our dependency graph.
It also makes sub_store.get parallel to message_store.get.
For both you pass in the relevant id to get the
full validated object.
This reduces our dependency on message_list code (via
message_util), and it makes moving streams/topics and
deleting messages more performant.
For every single message that was being updated or
deleted, the previous code was basically re-computing
lots of things, including having to iterate through
every message in memory to find the messages matching
your topic.
Now everything basically happens in O(1) time.
The only O(N) computation is that we now lazily
re-compute the max message id every time you need it
for typeahead logic, and then we cache it for
subsequent use. The N here is the number of messages
that the particular sender has sent to the particular
stream/topic combination, so it should always be quite
small, except for certain spammy bots.
Once the max has been calculated, the common operation
of adding a message doesn't invalidate our cached
value. We only invalidate the cache on deletes.
The main change that we make here from a data
standpoint is that we just keep track of all
message_ids for all senders. The storage overhead here
should be negligible. By keeping track of our own
messages, we don't have to punt to other code for
update/delete situations.
There is similar code in recent_topics that I think can
be improved in similar ways, and it would allow us to
eliminate functions like this one:
export function get_messages_in_topic(stream_id, topic) {
return message_list.all
.all_messages()
.filter(
(x) =>
x.type === "stream" &&
x.stream_id === stream_id &&
x.topic.toLowerCase() === topic.toLowerCase(),
);
}
This is a prep commit for implementing mute users feature, which
renames this function to be more specific. This function cannot be
used as-is for user mutes, because for user-muted messages, we always
want to rerender the message list, irrespective of what
`excludes_muted_users` is.
In muting_ui.js, we also remove an unnecessary conditional that is
already handled by update_topic_muting_and_rerender itself.
For messages which we don't have stored locally, we don't update
our data structures. This was actually our behaviour before
59e5f2d8fc, which introduced this
bug.
Not doing this caused a major bug where we ran into errors
moving messages for topics for which we didn't have all
the messages available.
This data structure has never been one that we actually render into
the DOM; instead, its role is to support clicking into view that
contain muted streams and topics quickly.
This downgrade makes that situation much more explicit, and is also
useful refactoring to help simpify the upcoming changes in #16746.

We move the message_store.add_message_metadata function
(and all its dependencies) into a new module called
message_helper and rename the function to process_new_message.
(It does a bit more than adding message metadata, such
as updating our message store.)
We also have a "protected" interface now in message_store,
so that message_helper can access the message store:
update_message_cache
get_cached_message
Because update_message_cache is identical to
the former create_mock_message, we just renamed it
in the tests.
Most callers should use these functions:
message_helper.process_new_message (setting)
message_store.get (getting)
It's slightly annoying that the setter interface
is in a different module than the getter interface,
but that's how you break a bunch of dependencies.
We also extract the tiny message_user_ids class:
user_ids()
add_user_ids()
All the code moves here are pretty trivial, and
the code that was moved maintains 100% line
coverage.
The module name `message_helper` is not ideal, but it's a single
function and it'll save time to just do the topology change now and
leave thinking through the right name to later.
